Verse Of The Day : Woe unto him that strives with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashions it, What make you? or your work, He has no hands? Isaiah 45 : 9

LISTEN : Countless times people strive with God over who they are. They argue with Him over what they feel is not right in their physique (bodily makeup) and nature. They choose to dwell on their inabilities instead of improving on their lives. They forgot the fact that what we are cannot stop what we can be. Everyone is created with some special abilities. Whether you are a cripple, blind, dumb, deaf, dullard, or whatever; there is ability in you. God’s grace can turn weakness into strength. (Joel 3 : 10 ; 2 Corinthians 12 : 9). However, until you accept yourself you cannot discover it. The day you cease to be angry with God and yourself you will discover your overlooked inherent abilities. Rather than complain and mourn your deficiencies, why not focus on what you can do to improve on your life. Arguing and blaming God for anything or everything is a dangerous thing to do. Our verse of the day says, ” Woe unto him that strives with his Maker!…” (Isaiah 45 : 9). The New Living Translation of the Bible puts it this way, ““What sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator. Does a clay pot argue with its maker? Does the clay dispute with the one who shapes it, saying, ‘Stop, you’re doing it wrong!’ Does the pot exclaim, ‘How clumsy can you be?’” Beloved, you are not a mistake. Your condition cannot hinder you either. Just make up your mind to be useful. If there is a willing heart, no matter your condition you can achieve what many people cannot achieve in their completeness. So, stop making your life miserable. Be wise!
